Let not your heart be troubled! In the “Parable of the Mustard Seed”, Jesus told us this would happen! He said the Kingdom of God would grow to the point where the “Birds of the Air” would nest in its branches. In explanation for the “Parable of the Sower”, He told us that the “Birds” were agents of Satan.
So there is a little Satanic infestation in the Catholic Church. So what? Msgr Pope consistently cuts through the bird droppings, so to speak, and delivers the True Gospel. Just say hallelujah and amen!
I’ve been a Christian since I was seven years old and I’m now 61. I am in no way (please) comparing Him to Trump, but I saw a few things during the campaign that made me realize that the same spirit that was around then is still around today. He didn’t draw those crowds because he was a milquetoast. The scripture says the common people heard him gladly. He fought against the corrupt religious leaders who were leading people the wrong way, which is why they fought against him so hard. He spoke truth forcefully, without compromise, and he held rallies! Big rallies!
Again, please don’t anyone flame me saying that I’m comparing our Lord to Trump...I’m just saying that the conditions and situations of the time seem to mirror what I’ve been seeing during this election season.
Jesus was a strong, uncompromising man of deep compassion. He understood the common working people and He was deeply loved and had a huge following.
No, I’m afraid he does not deliver the true gospel. He delivers a damning gospel. The Bible makes it utterly clear, Christ plus anything is damning. As has been said, salvation is by faith alone, but that faith will never be alone.

The yellow mustard plant grows to a height of about 15’ if left unchecked.
The parable of the mustard seed is about grossly false teachings.
